Plot

[edit]

On a newly constructed mountain road in the eastern USSR, dozens of vehicles carrying passengers and cargo are stranded due to heavy snowfall. Among those stuck are a State Security captain and "Swedish Professor Raiding," who is, in fact, Reginald Sniders, a foreign intelligence agent. The next morning, despite the ongoing blizzard, the convoy sets out to tackle the mountain pass.
